NICI Campaign Targets & Status

NICI Campaign Targets & Status

The NICI Planet-Finding Campaign is a comprehensive search for planetary companions of nearby stars. The campaign was awarded approximately 500 hours, during which approximately 300 targets were observed. The campaign was completed in Semester 2012B. Preliminary results are described in Liu et al. 2010 and Biller et al. 2010 . All Campaign observations taken before May 2011 will become publicly available via the GSA on 24-November 2012.

The completion status of the campaign as of October 2012 is shown in the following table.

The following is a list of Campaign targets.
As the Campaign was completed in 2012B, PIs may apply to make observations of the previously-restricted Campaign targets. However, TACs will be asked to avoid granting time to observations which approximate the observing mode and depth achieved by the Campaign, unless the science case specifically justifies why these new observations are necessary.
